Hi all,

I have a node type that has an integer CCK field with holds values from 0 to 10.

I have managed to add the CCK field as a facet and it works fine apart from the fact that only options with values > 0 are displayed under the facet in the Faceted search block.

So if I have 5 nodes with the field set to 7, 2 nodes with it set to 4 and 30 with it set to 0 I will get the following displayed in the faceted search block...

The Field

  • 7 (5)
  • 4 (2)

No option for 0 is displayed when I would have expected...

The Field

  • 7 (5)
  • 4 (2)
  • 0 (30)

If I enter a search query manually as below then I do get all the nodes with the value 0 returned so I think the data is being stored ok its just the faceted search block seems wrong.

Any ideas? Where/how should I look to try to debug this?

Many thanks

Andy

Solved this...

The function that gets the counts for the facets does a boolean test of the value returned from the document (presumably to establish whether a value was returned). Problem is that if your documents field has a value that equates to false ie [string] "0" then it doesnt get included in the counts.

I changed the test to see if the value was NULL and it works for me. Not tested any other cases.

In luceneapi_facet.block.inc

Change...

    foreach ($items as $name => $item) {
      try {
        if (NULL !== $item['field']) {
          $value = $document->getFieldValue($item['field']);
        }
        else {
          continue;
        }
      }
      catch (Exception $e) {
        continue;
      }
      if ($value) {

        // Normalizes values to an array.  Items that have multiple values in a

    foreach ($items as $name => $item) {
      try {
        if (NULL !== $item['field']) {
          $value = $document->getFieldValue($item['field']);
        }
        else {
          continue;
        }

        // Normalizes values to an array.  Items that have multiple values in a

Can you guide me on how to add CCK fields as facets? For me, the CCK fields do not turn up at admin/settings/luceneapi_node/facets.

Unfortunately this is how the 2.x version of the module works by design. 3.x will handle this better, but unless someone wants to dig in and start patching it won;t get backported to 2.x since it is an architectural change.
